Money, Warfare and Power in the Ancient World
Bloomsbury Academic (Verlag)
978-1-350-28376-3 (ISBN)
This volume is also a tribute to the life and impact of Professor Matthew Trundle, an inspiring teacher and scholar, who was devoted to promoting the discipline of Classics in New Zealand and beyond. At the time of his death, he was writing a book on the wider importance of money in the Greek world. A central piece of this research is incorporated into this volume, completed by one of his former students, Christopher de Lisle. Additionally, Trundle had situated himself at the centre of a wide-ranging conversation on the nature of money and power in antiquity. The contributions of scholars of ancient monetization in this volume bring together many of the threads of those conversions, further advancing a field which Matthew Trundle had worked so tirelessly to promote.
Jeremy Armstrong is Associate Professor in Classics and Ancient History at the University of Auckland, New Zealand. Arthur J. Pomeroy is Professor Emeritus of Classics at Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand. David Rosenbloom is Professor and Chair of Ancient Studies at the University of Maryland Baltimore County, USA.
